The Young Clarinet Virtuoso I

FOREWORD

The Young Clarinet Virtuoso I

The Young Clarinet Virtuoso is an organic continuation of the analogous collection The singing Clarinet, by the same author, Radivoj Lazić.

Four volumes of The Singing Clarinet are conceived as a supplement to his school I Am Studying Clarinet for classes I-IV of the elementary level (see the list on the cover of this issue); four volumes of The Young Clarinet Virtuoso are meant for classes I-IV of the medium level, but can also be used on the higher level of studying.

These compositions, arranged by progressive difficulty, offer besides their instructive purpose also a choice of pieces for stage appearances.

The clarinet part of the pieces signed with R. L. is composed by Radivoj Lazić, and the piano part has been worked out by Vlastimir Peričić; the pieces marked with V. P. are by Vlastimir Peričić.

In the memory of my father Lazar – my first teacher
